Read A Specter of Justice Online
Authors: Mark de Castrique
Although Sam, Nakayla, and their friends and adversaries are fictitious, they are accompanied in this tale by the spectral presence of characters who might have once walked the streets and hills of Asheville but are now enshrined by decades of folklore. Each of the stories presented during the fundraising ghost tour are part of the canon of Asheville's rich encounters with spirits from the other side. I've never met any of these dearly departed, but I apologize to them for any misquotes or misrepresentations I might have made in describing their lives, their deaths, or their current ethereal whereabouts. Please do not contact me for corrections.
As for the living, thanks to my editor, Barbara Peters, who helps trim away the dead parts of my stories; to JAG officer Jonathan DeMille for insights into the realm of military judicial process; and to Linda, Melissa, Pete, and Lindsay for reading the early manuscript.
I'm grateful to Rob Rosenwald and the Poisoned Pen Press staff for their guidance, support, and talent that make working with them such a pleasure.
Finally, I must acknowledge the City of Asheville and its diversity of people for providing such a great setting. Come see them. Bring your dog, have a brew, and maybe you'll see a ghost or two!
